Time Travel

We all make mistakes.. Some claim they have no regrets. This may be true since everything happens for a reason and there is always a lesson to learn. But sometimes, I wish I can go back... knowing what I know now. I would have done things a bit differently. But how, if possible, can I turn time back? This is my poem called Time Travel I wrote in mid December of 2007:

I didn’t mean to give so much trouble.
If I can turn back the hands of time
I’d do it in a double.
But this world never stops turning.
Time keeps on burning ‘cause
People waste time kicking rocks
With their heads down
Looking at the ground
They never look around
The environment which we live in.
Situations seem to get worse
Like the hole that grows deeper in my purse.
Money keeps the world turning
Keeps the wealthy controlling
So what if the world got rid of money
This paper printed value holds only that
A number. Now ain’t that funny?
There’s more to life than just numbers
What happened to love that lasts Decembers
But without money the world might crash
Into the sun ‘cause the pull is thrown off track
Then time would stop.
But how do I get to turn time back?
